Perhaps it would help if you describe the connection difficulty?
The tags appended to your post suggest that you have a third generation iPad Pro (WiFi Only). If so, your iPad will have a USB-C connection.
If you “computer” is a PC or Mac, it will have either USB-C connections (the same as your iPad Pro), the older standard USB Type-A connections, or both.
If your computer only has USB Type-A connections, to connect the iPad to your computer, you simply need a USB-C to USB3 Type-A cable. These cables should be readily available from good computer stores - or can be obtained directly from Apple:

If using a PC, you will need to ensure that the most recent version of iTunes is installed. For Mac, you’ll either need iTunes or Finder (as appropriate for the installed version of macOS).
